It was an unforgettable week with truly the best staff. JJ, Sarah, Bam, Piggy, Jade & Jade, etc. did an incredible job making all the guests feel welcome and provided top-notch service, from helping me through scuba dive training to organizing the free daily beach and sunset bar shuttle. Amenities were top notch - the hostel is a bit outside the main strip but perfect for a peaceful scuba getaway!

One of my favourite places I stayed while in Thailand for a month. Very clean and I loved my private room with the balcony. Great breakfast and the free beach shuttle was great. I did get woken up by nearby cockerels every morning but I didn't mind. The hostel didn't have a social vibe while I was there but I think that was more down to the people who were staying there at the time.
